XIII. NO. 7. Auto Trucks Instead of Mules. THURSDAY, MARCH 30, 1911. 50c. PER YEAR, IN ADVANCE liggs. Stnark'is Some Missourian said regretfully the other day that the United States was unprepared for war. The reason he gave was that his state, the great nuilc raising one, had not on hand enough to meet army needs if any considerable amount of hauling had to be done. The veterans of the civil war, whichever side they fought on, will recall their dependence on the army mule and shake their heads at this. There is no occasion for ahum. Though congress and the war de partmcnt have not found it out, the mule is no longer necessary. The army teamster, with his command of profane language, can be mustered out of service. The day of mechanical transport of army supplies has come. They have recognized that in Europe. During the French grand maneuvers of two years ago, which lasted lor sixteen days, 100,000 men were entirely dependent on motor transportation for their daily bread. The service was perfect.. Germany has its automobile corps. Italy is buying 600 power trucks at an expense of about 1,200,000. If the maneuvers which the American troops arc now to engage in shall call for much hauling of supplies, camp equipage, etc., over the extensive plains of Texas, the auto truck is the thing. The army should already have supplied itself with In the highly improbable some. event of army movements in northern Mexico they would simplify and makeveasy the transportation prob lem. The time has come to give the balky mule and the profane teamster their discharge papers. There may be a place for them in civil life, but not in the modern army.

'1 The Supreme court of the United States handed down an opinion the other day which should be of general interest, because it strengthens the pure footl law. A St. Louis firm is in the egg preserving business. It sold a number of cases to a Peoria bakery, but held them m storage, subject to shipping orders. After the goods had been shipped and were still in the original packages a government aucnt seized them as adulterated. The eggs had been dosed with borax, chmrary to law. The lawfulness of the seizure was disputed on the ground that the had no jurisdiction government over goods carried in interstate commerce not intended for sale Title to the eggs had passed before they left St. Louis, and the purchaser had had his own goods ship ped to him not for sale but as a raw material in manufacturing. This was ingenious, but it did not convince the court. It held that the pure food law was in the interest of the public health, and makes contraband products adulterated in violation of law which enter into interstate commerce. Whenever they do, the government can pursue and destroy wherever found. If it had not been for the government these doctored eggs would have gone first into the cake and then thcstoniachc of the i'eorians. It is a sad fact that eggs which are beginning to decay, or which arc kept from utterly spoiling by illegal treatment, find a market in many bakeries. lvcn those which arc extremely far gone and cannot be worked off in cake can be used for the purpose of glazing bread. The state, as well as the nation, should keep an eye on bad egg6 and pre vent their use as a raw material in manufacturing food.

For what purpose, no one win tell, unless it was to sell his father's land at a high price. In the early history of the county, pewter utensils were used for domesI'ewter bowls, plates, tic purposes. pans, etc., of the early days had gone out of use at this period. The best quality of pewter, also called white, metal, was made of tin and hardened with copper. The cheap grade was made of lead, allowed with antimony and bismuth. Duvall had secured some of these old pewter vessels and cut thom up and hid them away for his use in working the silver trick. Duvall was aware of the fact that his neighbors knew nothing about ores of any kind. He made his "silver runs" in his iron ladle on a wood lire, which was absurd. He mado these "silver rniib" by dissolving a Ho would piece of pewter in acid. pour this solution on the hob crushed rock in the ladle. The acid would soon be consumed and the metal would remain in the ladle with the crushed rock, and when cooled ofr the metal would be formed into small shot and could be picked out. This would occur, no matter whaJL kind of rock might be used. This trick was like many other tricks, that were played among the early settlers of the county. Mark Duvall moved to Ohio county where he studied medicine, worked up an extensive practice and lived to a good old age, but, as far as is known, he never '"discovered" any silver in HONDO. that county.

Some of the farmers in the rural districts of Daviess county ave tried it and they agree in say ing mat it is capaDie 01 uoing wonderful things in the way of taking the bumps out of a dirt road. One of the banks at Owensboro thinks well of the drag that it has issued a booklet telling how to build it and how to use it to the best advantage. The bank is giving away the pamph let to its farmer friends and patrons, and the demand has been so strong that two editions have been issued Over in Hancock county, which adjoins Daviess, an enterprising citizen built a king drag and gave it a test The result was so satis factory that the County Judge has ordered twelve of the ' machines" constructed for use throughout the county. It is freely claimed by those who have tried it that one man working with a team and a drag can, do more than six men working In the ordinary way and that the results are incomparably belter and more permanent. These reports are nothing more than repetition of those which contc from every section of the country where the KuJg drag has been used. r -- I 11 ; ri QoipUcatcl x j j pri-ef- ' 1 1 .
